摘要:

带状流被认为对磁化等离子体约束起着至关重要的作用。因此,从湍流波动中产生的这些流动的成因是非常重要的。我们调查的相对重要性,通过雷诺应力,麦克斯韦应力,测地线声学模式(GAM)转移漂移阿尔文湍流的带状流产生机制。通过数值计算,我们量化的能量转移到纬向流由于每一个这些影响。的重要性,在静电和电磁湍流的条件相关的聚变装置的边缘的三个驱动成分被揭示为一个广泛的参数。雷诺应力被发现提供一个流动驱动,而电磁麦克斯韦应力的情况下被认为是一个水槽的流动能量。在高等离子体β的限制,电磁效应和阿尔文动力学是重要的,麦克斯韦应力被发现取消雷诺应力的高度。测地线振荡,有关的平衡压力剖面修改由于poloidally不对称运输,可以作为两个汇作为驱动项,这取决于参数制度。对于高β情况,GAM是流的主要驱动力。这也反映在流量的频率依赖性中,在该状态下在GAM频率处显示出明显的峰值。

英文摘要:

Zonal flows are recognised to play a crucial role for magnetised plasma confinement. The genesis of these flows out of turbulent fluctuations is therefore of significant interest. We investigate the relative importance of zonal flow generation mechanisms via the Reynolds stress, Maxwell stress, and geodesic acoustic mode (GAM) transfer in drift-Alfvén turbulence. By means of numerical computations we quantify the energy transfer into zonal flows owing to each of these effects. The importance of the three driving ingredients in electrostatic and electromagnetic turbulence for conditions relevant to the edge of fusion devices is revealed for a broad range of parameters. The Reynolds stress is found to provide a flow drive, while the electromagnetic Maxwell stress is in the cases considered a sink for the flow energy. In the limit of high plasma beta, where electromagnetic effects and Alfvén dynamics are important, the Maxwell stress is found to cancel the Reynolds stress to a high degree. The geodesic oscillations, related to equilibrium pressure profile modifications due to poloidally asymmetric transport, can act as both sinks as drive terms, depending on the parameter regime. For high beta cases the GAMs are the main drive of the flow. This is also reflected in the frequency dependence of the flow, showing a distinct peak at the GAM frequency in that regime.
